NJ has officially dropped "justifiable need" requirement and all Police Chiefs should have been notified. GREAT way to start the weekend!!! https://www.anjrpc.org/page/NJDropsJustifiableNeed?fbclid=IwAR2ckKtGbnTW9u6Hujw51bgfl0R5ehu0MzgmlW6CnuvrY0JbFh-9ysWB78w&fs=e&s=cl

If I had to guess they will all most likely be offering it as a service to non-LEO ASAP Why wouldn't they?

List of ranges to for qualifying score that you'll need to provide when applying for NJ Conceal Carry License. https://nj.gov/njsp/firearms/shooting-ranges.shtml I guess it's time to start looking at the 'Conceal Carry" section on the forum.

This is the way.

I'm sure they won't make it easy. Probably make it as difficult as possible. Still, VERY good news.

I have a couple of these as well. Really like them. Need to order a few more.

Bringing this thread back! So what have you been drinking? Right now, Old Forster 100 Bourbon on the rocks. Tried the Old Forester 86 and LOVED in. Figured more proof is more better. Want to pick up a bottle of the Old Forester 1920: Prohibition Syle. Have heard good things. Also picked up the two new offerings, Bottled In Bond & Triple Mash, from Jack Daniel's recently. Liked the Triple Mash better. Picked up a bottle of Wild Turkey Rare Breed. Have heard VERY good things about it. Waiting to drink it with one of my fiends. Also picked up a a bottle of Jack Daniel's Single Barrel. Cant' go too long without one of those.

I pity the fool!!....who thought "inflation would be transitory". Around 25k. They just tore off the bandaid. But haven't realized the wound is infected yet.

Market continuing downward slide. Down 800 on Friday and currently down 675. Crypto getting CRUSHED today as well.

Few pics.

Got the beds all done. Transplanted 5 tomatoe plants (beef steak & Rutgers). Unfortunately waited too long and all my cucs and zuchs I had started from seed died. Were too over crowded. Early today I went to purchaed Egg Plant, Zucchini and Sweet Pepper plants from HD and put them in. I am going to replant cucumbers from seeds. Hope to get it done tomorrow but forecarst is looking like all rain, all day. Also going to plant lettuce, carrots, beets and a few other things.

$4.89 at Costco in North Plainfield. And I can confirm that they do indeed have signs out saying starting beginning July 5th that you'll need to be a Costco Member to buy gas there. I was tempted to drive around to see how their prices compared but not while driving the 2004 6.0L V8 Yukon. After I filled up and reset MGP dispaly it actually LOST MPGs while idling at red lights. LOL. https://news.yahoo.com/costco-barring-non-members-buying-174848141.html

CZ-75 or other version (SP-01, P01, etc), a semi-auto 22 target pistol (Browning Buckmark, Ruger Mark IV, etc) or a nice snub nose revolver if the 357 you already own isn't a snubbie.

Modern Material Brake looks likea good bang for your buck. Many of the others are only $30 - $40 more so not "a lot" of difference money wise but still a slight difference. https://modernmateriel.com/product/modern-materiel-v2-muzzle-brake/ Interesting video showing the Surefire MB556 brake and the Surefire Warden Blast Diffuser Combo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GekzjiIKeOE

I was looking for a comp about 8 years ago and came across a video about the "Deployment Comp" by Wheaton Arms. I had never heard of it so I started a threat about it and comps in general. https://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/68833-recommend-compensator-anyone-use-wheaton-arms-comp/&tab=comments#comment-872521 This is the video, while a little old (2015)it explains it well and has some good information about the comp. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWqt7xjY9NA I still have the AR and everyone who has ever shot it really likes it. It is "blasty" if you are on either side of it but if you are at the rifle range and worried or bothered by loud noises then maybe you shouldn't be at a rifle range. Here is a link to the product. I wouldn't hesitate to buy one again. https://wheatonarms.com/product/wheaton-arms-deployment-comp-5-56-with-black-nitride-qpq-finish/

@Cheflife15 So .....what ya' get??

He'll be driving 50k miles a year. What is the mileage component of that warranty? According to Nissan's website I'm only seeing "Almost every Nissan – including yours - comes with a 3-year/36,000 mile limited warranty, and a 5-year limited powertrain warranty. For enhanced protection, Nissan also offers optional extended warranties." https://www.nissanusa.com/owners/ownership/warranty.html

Nope. Nor will they cover the THOUSANDS of other times each and every year that defensive gun use occurs. And THOUSANDS of times per year is at the low end if the estimates. I've discussed it in the past in various threads but if you aren't familiar with how often firearms are used defensively each and every year then please do a little "googlefu" to look into it. The low end estimates are DGU (Defensive Gun Use) is at least equal to the estimate of criminal usage. At the higher end it's in the hundreds of thousands. Real number is probably something the middle. A very important point to keep in mind is that the vast majority of DGU (95+% or close to it) occurs without a shot ever having to be fired. Restricting private gun ownership would create THOUSANDS of new victims each and every year.

Don't know as much about Mazdas. From what little I know they are trying to position themselves as more "upscale". Stay away from Nissans. Their transmissions (CVT transmissions) are less than reliable. The Nissan Frontiers with manual transmissions are supposed to be pretty reliable if you want a truck. I wouldn't touch a Nisaan with automatic transmission though. What type of vehicle to you need? If just something to get you from A to B as cheaply and reliably as possible then I would seriously look at a Toyota Corolla. If you need an SUV to lug stuff around then look at some of the Toyota and Honda small to midsized SUVs. Toyota RAV4, Honda Passport, Honda Ridgeline if you want/ need something with a bed. I'm going to repeat this because it's worth repeating. Stay away (FAR AWAY) from anything GM.

Two words. Toyota & Honda. I would probably be looking for a used Corrola or maybe a Camry. Definelty a four cylinder. Good luck.

Do you know what exactly you are looking for as far as make, model and year? Do you know price ranges? Always a use in haggling. And for goodness sake, don't tell them you are looking to buy today! Be willing, and I encourage you, to walk away. Looks at a few different lots. Also, don't buy a GM vehicle. They are complete crap.

Yep. And the base will eat it up. Werd.

Optics. So they can be perceived to be "doing something" about the problem they helped create.

Some of the Peonies I've had for a few years now. Others I took from an Uncle's garden who passed away. He had them for decades. Yeah, people are having to get creative to make raised beds. The price of wood is simply outragous. I'm wondering if it will even be worth it. The price is really adding up quickly. $270 for the "cheap" wood. $85 for the planter blocks. $230 for the garden soil. So close to $200 per raised bed. Maybe I could have done two beds instead of three? All spilt milk now. No use crying over it. I guess I can take comfort in that the beds should last for hopefully at last five years if not longer.

Purchased the "planter wall blocks" and wood boards to make the raised beds yesterday. Using Douglas Fir. Price of Cedar is OUTRAGOUS. Would have been close to $1k to use Cedar. Was MUCH less using Douglar Fir. I know it doesn't last as long but I want to see how we do and if my wife and kids help over the next year or two. If the garden does well and I have some help maybe then we can look at Cedar or some kind of stone down the road. And hopefully it will be MUCH less expensive then. Ordered 4 cubic yards of gardening soil (top soil and "mushroom compost" mix) from a local nursery. Need to move around a few things in my garden to make room for the three beds (8x4 & about 12 inches deep). Moved the most difficult (Butterfly Bush) was moved today. Have to move some Peonies and Day Lillies tomorrow. Know it's not the right time of the year but spot I was going to originally put the raised beds doesn't get as much sun as the garden area,. May do one or two "cattle panel trelises". Not sure yet. Hopefully have all the plants I started from seed around beginning of April in the soil by next weekend. They are getting large. Especially the cucumber and zucchini.
